During the early part of the day there were goodly amounts of wheat thrown over board and holders seemed anxious to set out of thin train. Later there was nit almost complete reversal of condi tions and prices Rained sharply under Kpod buying power, with rather small offerings. Mr. Broomhatl, In a special cable, used all tho bullish conditions at his command and this cablo was the principal help to the wheat late In the session. In addition to the above bull ish Item a report was received from Du luth saj Ing that a round lot of durum wheat was sold there yesterday for ex port. Charles IS. Lewis ot Minneapolis, In referring to tho export sales at Du luth, said thcro are sales made dally according to a report received from Julius Uarnes of Duluth. but that no one clso seems to be doing anything there In wheat on export account. Kansas City reports 00,000 bushels sold to ko tut to millers, and a message from there said higher temperatures liavo removed all tho snow protection from tho southwestern wheat fields and that thn ground Is In a condition where a cold snap would moro than likely da in ner the growing plant. rash wheat, lo higher. Gossip on corn centered mainly about the reported drouth In Argentina, but as this Is not recorded an van serious ns Jet few were found who would advocate purchases around Uho present level, a majority of the bulls expect to see a set back of moderate proportions unless some new features develop In the situation over night.

I'ntll arrival of the Adrlanple reirt gave legitimate Imputae to sales tlio whrat market was a rijtt of glorified scalping affair. Speculators sold on tli hard spots nnd took small profits on the soft ones, or vice versa.

The steadiness of the list todnv seemed to be: due. Ies to Improvement In senti ment than to the apparently oversold con dition of the market. American Agricul tural fell, losing 44 print. Southern Pa cific was under pressure at times, hot Its wcakne was Ignored by the general market Strength or the copper nhares, while perhaps due In large part to eoverlnc operation, drew attention to signs of linnrovement In the copper metal situa tion.

'The supply of beef steers this morning was model nte nnd the quality ns ri rule not very good, the offerings consisting largely of Inferior stuff. Tho market was anywhere from steady to a llttlo caster. For tho week pi Ices are alt the way from 10c to 2Jf lower, the decline bring the heaviest on .the heay cattlo and the least on the light and low priced cattle. Cows ninl heifers were, in about the neme ronilltlnii us beef steers this morn ing, the trade: being slow nnd steady to a little lower, fltrlrtly good heifers have commanded very firm prices this week nnd they are possibly no lower and the same might bo true of the best cornfed cows. Aside from that, the general mar ket on cows and heifers Is 10JT15C lower thnn lust week. Stock cattle nnd feeders have, been In active demand every day this week nnd prices hne been In consequence very strong, as the supply has been small. At the present time thn mnrkot Is at tho high point of the season. The market on all Whins of killing cattle, both beef steers and cow stuff, closed very slow and fully 10c lower than yex teiduy In some caaes salesmen thought they took off n'en morn than that unit tho trudo wound up In a very satisfactory manner.

IIOOS Mostly all the buyers were ac tive unite early this morning and their first bids Indicated some strength In the trade as compared with yesterday. Spec ulators and shippers bought a little more than of late, consequently competition In tween buyers was moro keen than for several days back, (leuerally speaking the whole buy I up force paid prices pretty much on the same level. IhUB making tho trado verv even In comparison with the last two days. The big bulk of tho offer ings passed out nt first hands largely at prices ranging from (7.05 to (7.25, being about a nickel above the majority of sales on the day before, The most popular prices were (7.10, (7.15 and (7.20, with a top at (7.80 for several loads. As was the casei on the last few days, light hogs and tho mixed grades received most of the advance In prices, practically all of that kind being fully Cc higher. While a good many hogs on the heavy order shared In the nickel advance, there were somo no better than strong and still others that showed little It any Improve ment. Most ot the liberal supply was dis posed ot In an active manner and n complete clearance was effected at a very satisfactory hour. The supply amounted to about 173 cars, or 12,300 head, being larger than Mst Thursday and two weeks ago. but in the neighborhood ot 3.040 head short of a year ago. A good many light hogs continue to show up, but the receipts run largely to the heavy grades. Representative tales: No. At, 8h. Tr. H At. ..-i.tOT lb.
